Students learn to articulate informed perspectives, conduct research, and analyze complex issues from multiple viewpoints. Graduates are prepared for diverse careers in business, government, public relations, social services, or further studies in law, ministry, or education. Booth’s small class sizes, collaborative environment, and emphasis on ethical leadership make it an ideal setting for interdisciplinary exploration and growth.
